Welcome to the GWTW Forum.Guests (non-registered users) can view the forum but are unable to post. If you don't have anything to say then why would you bother to register?One of the most popular sections of the GWTW Forum has long been the Swap Meet. A great place to sell old, seldom flown kites or to get great deals on used (gently flown) kites. Only registered users can see the Swap Meet section, let alone wheel and deal. 1000's (literally) of kites have changed hands thanks to the Swap Meet.There are several more benefits to being a registered user, but you'll have to join our little community to find out all the "secrets".Questions or concerns?

a lot of times we would get linesets that were brand new unflown but the lines started to come unwound from the winder....just happens if the sets were not shrink wrapped (ala laser) or well bungeed....happens....

IMO it is not worth sending them back et al....fly them....beat on them..then get a new set.....

Exactly...Unless they show actual signs of wear or damage, then it might be worth it to send them back. Otherwise just go enjoy that Z! It does have a definite presence on the lines(aka strong pull), so be aware of that. I love mine...

Nice! Good to know! I'll do just that once it stops raining!!! Ahhhh....sigh.

I wonder if I'll ever use the 50' lines at all? Do you? In lighter winds I suppose? Have you ever heard of changing out the spars on this one to make it lighter? I mean Prism says 1-17 but I doubt that anything less than 5 is the case.

I'm happy to report that after giving one last attempt at contacting the shop and in talking with the manager(MaryAnne) who has worked at this shop for 14yrs(kudos), she is sending me a new line set and said I can keep this one!!!! WOW! Good job MaryAnne!!! I told her that I'm up for a visit to Colorado soon and that I'd gladly deliver the original set in person. I also thanked her profusely for a job well done!!!! Gave her a phone hug and everything

I live 20 miles from the store he talks of. Very cool stuff hanging from the ceiling!

I have been there dozens of times but have only seen "dudes" there. I will have to look for this lady you talk of!

First I talked to one of the "dudes". Don't remember his name(kinda sounded like he just broke up with his girl or something) then I asked for the mgr. and he asked if I wanted the dept.mgr or the store mgr. which is when I asked for the store mgr and got her. Real cool lady!! She may even be the owner. No clue.
